    Default Msn Spam And Eggs

    hey, is this really you? albums.yoyohost.com

    does anybody know about this? i have been poking around Google and found that people know it is out there but now how to stop it. i have received this link twice. both from people on my contact list. the first time i tried 2 open it and Kaspersky Internet Security blocked it immediately. presentably, its being sent from a friend. over and over and over and over...... i know its a Trojan so i don't open it. it seems to be broad casted to anybody running MSN messenger, my bro even reports that he receives it on X-box. if anybody else receives it
    DO NOT OPEN IT
    but if you know how 2 stop it, without blocking all your IM friends let me know
    ~Thank you~

    MSN is well known as a source of infection by people clicking on links they believe are sent from buddies, when their buddies account may already be compromised.
    The same advice applies here.
